19) Comparative advantage is the ability to carry out an economic activity, such as manufacturing a product, more efficiently than others. China knew how to produce silk whereas others didn’t. So China clearly had an advantage compared to others. Thus the correct option is:
(A) China had a comparative advantage in silk.
20) In two-country multi product model the relative wage ratio determines the pattern of trade whereas it doesn’t in two-country two product model. Thus, the correct option is:
(A) the relative wage ratio will determine the pattern of trade (which good is exported by which country).
Please post the other questions separately. Thanks and good luck :)
